Calderwood Nursery Chronicle: 7.10.22
Dear Parent/Carer,
I hope you are all well.
Communication update:
Following discussions at our recent Parent Council we have formed a group to look at suggestions from families as to how we can better streamline communications from Calderwood Nursery. Some suggestions have included:
-
A short weekly email with links to actions/ information on the blog (separated into the two categories) rather than a long monthly newsletter email.
-
Separating the blog from twitter, with twitter being a showcase for targeted events.
-
Monthly Calendar email.
-
The blog will continue to be a one stop shop but we will improve the categories for navigation.
-
Reviewing the new strategies in November.

Calderwood Communication (For information):
CHAMPION UPDATE
Huge congratulations to Miss Huddleston and Mrs McGinlay who are taking up new Early Years Practitioner roles at WL nurseries. We thank them for all their efforts in our first year at Calderwood Nursery and wish them the best of luck in their new adventures. We will keep you posted on when their last days are. During this period, we will begin the recruitment process for new champions who will join our Calderwood Family. We will keep you updated with the progress of this.
This week, we welcomed Miss Smith to our champion team and look forward to welcoming Mrs MacGillviray on 17th October.
Finally, congratulations to Mrs Brito who welcomed baby Maria to the world on 28.9.22.
REPORTING AN ABSENCE DURING SCHOOL HOLIDAY
The school October holidays run from Monday 10th October –18th October. Our Calderwood nursery will remain open. To report an absence/share any information please remember to call the nursery phone on 01506 280070 as the school office will be closed.
ORDERING LUNCH DURING SCHOOL HOLIDAY
During the school holidays nursery lunch will be a sandwich option. You should continue to order this when you register your child in the morning.
WARM AND WINTER CLOTHING
As we transition into our Autumn and Winter months, please ensure your child has waterproof and warm clothes which are labelled. When your child arrives at the nursery their coats and wellies are to be stored in the muddy boot room to allow them to freely access the nursery garden. We understand the hardship for families at the moment, so if you need any support with this please do not hesitate to get into contact with a champion.
